The Make-A-Wish Foundation started with one wish out of Phoenix, Arizona, and the organization has grown so grand ever since.

What most people don't understand is that UFOs are on a cosmic tourist route. That's why they're always seen in Arizona, Scotland, and New Mexico. Another thing to consider is that all three of those destinations are good places to play golf. So there's possibly some connection between aliens and golf.

In September 2008 - as Lehman Brothers filed for bankruptcy and AIG, the world's biggest insurance company, accepted a federal bailout - Senator John McCain of Arizona, in what was widely viewed as a political move, suspended his presidential campaign and called on Obama to rush back to Washington for a bipartisan meeting at the White House.
Andrew Ross Sorkin
I grew up in rural Arizona. My dad ran a general store.
Ann Kirkpatrick
As a little girl in Arizona, none of the women in my family had a cultural connection with Girl Scouts, but the opportunity resonated with my mother as a platform that would allow me to excel in school.
Anna Maria Chavez
I'm originally from Phoenix, Arizona, but I've fallen in love with London.
Ashley Roberts
When states like Alabama and Arizona passed some of the harshest immigration laws in history, my Attorney General took them on in court and we won.
Barack Obama
If you look up what I did in Arizona, you'll see that I fought my way through training camp. I didn't have a problem fighting my teammates.
Baron Corbin
Northern Arizona was a job no one had ever survived, and a lot of people said I was crazy to take it. But to build a program and win there gave me a lot of confidence when people said we couldn't do it at Pitt.
Ben Howland
The summer in Arizona is too hot.
I love Arizona. I was raised right. Somebody has to go to Washington and knock the hell out of the place.
Ben Quayle
Arizona - I've only spent a few days there, but it's inspired me the most. It's so peaceful.
Benjamin Clementine
I'm from London, and you hardly see stars because of the pollution of light. But in Arizona, there's nothing, so I can see the stars.
I worked at a movie theater in Tempe, Arizona, when I went to community college there. And I got fired because a sorority had rented out a theater to watch 'Titanic,' and they were being really rude to me while they were waiting for the movie. So as I tore their tickets, I told them the end of the movie.
Bill Hader
I went to prep school for one year in Arizona. It was called Orme.
Bill Kreutzmann
I think what's going to hurt the Republicans enormously is the extremist position of Mitt Romney on the immigration issue and states like New Mexico, states like Colorado, Nevada, Arizona - and I think it's going to be the margin of victory for President Obama, a very narrow victory.
Bill Richardson
Anytime that the Arizona Cardinals play football, I scream at the top of my lungs at the television. And I have certain dances that I do.
Blake Shelton
In Arizona, there's mountains behind my house.
Brian Urlacher
For my band's debut tour in 2011, we road-tripped across the country in a 15-passenger van. It was the first time I'd left Alabama. I drove through scenery I'd only ever seen in calendars: auburn leaves falling in Vermont, the sun setting over purple mountains in Arizona. It was incredible.
Brittany Howard
I went to public high school in Scottsdale, Arizona, and I certainly wore a lot of makeup in high school. I experimented with a cat eye for a semester, and then, you know, a strong red lip because Courtney Love in Hole was all the rage.
Busy Philipps
The notion that we won the war against Iraq is like saying we won a war against Arizona. I mean, the fact of the matter is it's not that big of a country. Nobody, I don't think, had any notion that we would do anything but win it.
Arizona is gorgeous. The sunshine in Arizona is gorgeous red.
I live in Arizona, and I don't like the way they treat Hispanics there.
I live in Arizona. I think the Hispanic people are amazing. I think when people talk about illegal immigration... it does them a disservice.
'Hey Dude' was shot in Arizona, and that took me to the West Coast. We did 65 episodes. It was not a show that a ton of people saw, so it was like doing acting classes and getting paid for it. At that point I had the acting bug. So I went to L.A. to give it a try and never left.

I was a musical theater major at the University of Arizona. And I primarily trained with Marsha Bagwell. It was a classical program, so we did Chekov and Moliere and a lot of Shakespeare.
My wife used to be an anchorwoman in Arizona, so she knew John McCain, and she liked him, and I kinda liked him.
As Annie Proulx is to Wyoming, so is Jane Candia Coleman to Arizona.
Arizona is really cool but I couldn't stay there for too long.
We can't have - we can't have a patchwork of 50 states developing their own immigration policy. I understand the frustration of people in Arizona. They want the federal government to step up and deal with this problem once and for all, and that's what we want to do.
I went to the University of Arizona on a full athletic scholarship for gymnastics, where I competed and got 9th in the nation at the NCAAs.
I have a home in Arizona. I go a couple months a year, but basically Chicago is my home.
The Horny Toad in Cave Creek has great food. When I'm in Arizona, I have at least one meal there. I have a daughter who lives out there, and Dee Dee Wood, who was the choreographer on 'Mary Poppins,' lives out there. I still get out there once in a while, but not in the summer.
Growing up in Arizona, I love fireworks, shooting off bottle rockets and M80s.
I hung out with Merle Haggard on his bus, which sort of freaks me out. It was him and his wife. We played with Merle in Oklahoma City. I'm from Arizona, and we talked about Arizona, and he remembered playing for two dollars a day down there at a bar.
Somebody said I am the most popular person in Arizona because I am speaking the truth.
As our economy advances, educational attainment is going to keep Arizona competitive.
We don't want Arizona to be dependent on the whims of Barack Obama and the federal government.
I honestly believe that we are Arizonans and Americans first, not merely advocates for our respective political parties.
I've repeated time and again that Arizona is open for business.
If there's one thing Arizona is best in the nation at, it's water.
We want to make sure Arizona residents have the opportunity to learn about the decisions we are making and have a chance to participate in the process.
Arizona has three of the top 10 public high schools in the nation. We know how to educate a child. We just need to do it more often in more locations, and where we're having issues are in low-income areas where - where kids don't have a parent that cares or two parents that care, and, of course, also in our tribal nations.
In many respects, Arizona is a model for the rest of the country on best practices for water management.
It's very easy for people to say what's wrong with education in Arizona, but if I'm elected as governor, I want to focus on what we're doing well and maximizing the impact of what we know is working.
As I have traveled the state, I have seen firsthand that there are Arizonans who are hurting.
You still find a great sense of possibility here, and I want to make sure that Arizona stays that way. I want us to be the welcoming, job-creating state we've been from the start, a place where everybody's got a chance.
My focus is 100 percent on my day job, on the state of Arizona.
As governor, it is my highest priority to protect Arizona citizens.
